Answer:

About 30.17 years

Explanation:

About 94.6% decays by beta emission to a metastable nuclear isomer of barium: barium-137m . The remainder directly populates the ground state of barium-137, which is stable.

Answer:

about 30.17 years

Explanation:

Caesium-137 has a half-life of about 30.17 years. About 94.6% decays by beta emission to a metastable nuclear isomer of barium: barium-137m (137mBa, Ba-137m). The remainder directly populates the ground state of barium-137, which is stable.

<h2>Question no 1:</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option A which is Sarah is correct because genetic diversity occurs over a long period of time.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Genetic diversity is a large number of allelic combinations for a trait in specie in a population.
  • Genetic diversity is caused due to mutations or random breeding in a specie.
  • It is good for the adaptation of specie in an environment, due to diverse in genotypes and phenotype of a trait.
<h2>Question number 2:</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is the species will adapt to the changes.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • If the environment changes, the first thing a specie do is an adaptation to that change in the environment.
<h2>Question 3.</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option D which is, "The spines of a cactus protect it from animals".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • So the plant of cactus was in danger due to animals. So the start growing spines in response to animals.
  • Hence the correct answer is option D.
<h2>Question 4.</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is, "Marie's plant will lean toward the sun so that it can get the most sunlight".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The plant will lean towards the sun light by the mechanism of phototropism.
  • Phototropism is the mechanism of growth of the plant in a specific direction in the response of light.
  • There are two types of phototropism.
  • One is a positive phototropism in which plant grows towards the light.
  • The other is negative phototropism in which plant grows away from the light.
  • In this question,the plant will do positive tropism.
<h2>Question no. 5</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is, "The dodo bird could not adapt quickly to the challenges of the environment".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • So the dodo could not adopt to the environment. For the positive adaption of survival, they should be afraid of sailors but the would not afraid of a sailor.
  • Due to which they went extinct.

Water has a density of 1 g/cc. If you have 1 cc of water, how much mass does it contain?
rewona [7]
Water has a density of 1 g/cc. If you have 1 cc of water, then the mass it contains would be 1 g. <span>Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. It is a property that can be used to describe a substance. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

How many moles of water can be obtained from the reaction of 4 moles of O2?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer: 8moles

Explanation:

The reaction below shows the formation of 2 moles of water from 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen respectively.

2H2(g) + O2 (g) --> 2H2O(l)

So, if 1 mole of O2 produce 2 mole of H2O

4 moles of O2 will produce Z mole of H2O

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

1 x Z = 4 x 2

Z = 8

So, the equation will be 8H2(g) + 4O2 (g) --> 8H2O(l)

Thus, 4 moles of O2 will produce 8moles of H2O .
